>Description:
In 1.9.54, fetchnews.c, line 1625, there is a call to ln_log() that contains the formatting string "%p". This is eventually passed to vsnprintf. The included version doesn't support %p, and calls abort().
>How-To-Repeat:
      
>Fix:
Replacing the %p with %d fixes the abort() (though gcc complains about the pointer/integer formatting; a better fix might be to avoid printing a pointer that is likely meaningless to the user).
